“After attending the Contemporary Leadership workshop, I feel I now have the knowledge to improve the effectiveness of my communications and dealings with my management team and my senior management. I think the most significant impact from this program will be in staff retention and putting some methods in place. Thank you, Natalie. This course has been extremely insightful. You are the kind of person I would like to have at the end of a phone to talk with regularly! I have learnt so much about myself and my team.”

“The Contemporary Leadership: Managing Human Capital to Achieve Organizational Excellence was excellent! The interactive discussions were a very valuable part of the program. Learning the Feedback for Success model was a specific tool I walked away with that I will apply right away. The most significant, positive impact on the organization as a result of this leadership development program will be the importance of interacting positively with employees, utilizing the skills learned from the Conflict Dynamics Profile. Specifically Taking Perspectives and Delaying Responses.”

“I wanted to let you know that we got a lot of great feedback on your presentation from the How to Excel as an HR Assistant program. The attendees said that you were an excellent presenter and that it was an outstanding class. Jackie Shannon rated your last module (Increasing Your Value to the Organization) as inspirational and Eric Jensen said it was one of the best seminars I have attended in my eight years of HR. Thank you for the outstanding job!”

“The Contemporary Leadership program was very, very good. I feel the most valuable part of the program was learning the DiSC assessment and completing it across the Europe team. Also, understanding others conflict responses, both constructive and destructive. I walked away with skills in understanding personality styles, how to conduct 1:1s to focus on monthly performance, and adjusting my D style to work more effectively with others.”

“The CL program was Excellent! The most valuable part of the program was the CDP360 evaluation and the DiSC behavioral profile. I have a much better understanding of how I deal with conflicts and people. Knowing some of the behaviors of my peers and their I, S, and D styles will really help in my interactions with them. The most significant impact on the organization from having attended this program is that it really made us look at our behavior, from our peers and boss perspectives. It has us all taking about what we can do better.”

What We Do:
We help people and organizations improve performance through HR Management Consulting, Professional Development Training, and Career Management Consulting.

Since 1991, numerous labor and employment laws have been enacted and amended, which has dramatically changed the landscape of the work environment in the United States.

What does this mean to employers?

It means that employers today must balance driving results equally with managing risk. It’s a risky proposition today to run a business without having current knowledge of labor laws, sound policies and procedures to mirror the laws, and a well trained HR and leadership team to manage within the boundaries of the laws. Just ask a few organizations that have had to settle legal cases for sexual harassment, religious discrimination, negligent hiring, and wrongful terminations…
We can consult with you, on a flat-fee basis, to provide the HR expertise you and your team need—at a price that works for small business. We can provide legal compliance training for your team to help you avoid costly legal land mines. And, we can help get your HR department operating more strategically and efficiently to save you money. Just click on one of the links for more information about what we do:

  • Labor & Employment Law Training

Today’s work environment is a lot more complex: employees needing more disability and religious accommodations, employee drama involving Facebook and social media, “doing more with less”, an aging workforce, generational diversity and drama…and the list goes on. For many supervisors, trying to juggle employee drama while driving results is pushing many of them into 60+ hour workweeks. Why? Because most supervisors haven’t been properly trained in how to actually lead people. They’re still trying to “manage” tasks and processes when they should be leading people. Here’s a good analogy: Imagine if you were still running Windows ’98 on your PC? The same applies to leadership. Most supervisors are still operating with knowledge of how to manage people from 12 years ago—about the time we had Windows ’98. Yet, the work environment is radically different, the people are different—and the laws are different and more complex. So, it’s time you gave your management team a much needed “human software upgrade”! When you do, they’ll be able to lead their teams more effectively, work more efficiently to regain a better work/life balance, drive performance improvement—and stop stepping on legal land mines that create risk for the organization.
